Two fraud suspects were arrested in Palo Alto Friday after attempting to escape.

Police said Emmanuel Glinton and Kelsey Kathleen Lucius tried withdrawing funds from a bank account that was not theirs at First Tech Federal Credit Union.

When police arrived at the bank they said the suspects took off in a truck.

They said Glinton, who was driving, rammed a patrol car while trying to get away. Officers followed the suspects into a dead end where Glinton reversed into another patrol car.
